Tasks Timer - can I get rid of seconds in display?

the new timer format (0h 00m 00s) is a bit computer-geekish - who really needs to keep track of seconds in their time management?
Is there a way I can not show seconds?
Also, that field is odd that you can't highlight it and then just type new values (on Firefox) - it would be convenient if you could just enter a number and Timer would default anything less than 5 as hours and anything more than 5 as minutes...
Thanks for any suggestions...

We put the seconds there mainly so that people could see that it was counting. In the past, people have complained that they didn't know that a timer was going, and that they couldnt see the current time without reloading the page. Now, the timer is always accurate without reloading and its clear that it is counting.

We will think of a way to make the seconds an option.

Regarding Firefox editing, I could not reproduce this. I click in FF and I am able to select the current time and type in a new time. Some shortcuts that you may not be aware of, if you type "2h" it will save the new timer as 2 hours. You can also type "2h 15m" or "2:15" if you prefer.
